Tokyo Olympics (Brazil win Gold)

7+ being on the PS5 making watching this rather easy. Ch7 providing good picture quality.
Georgie Parker good on hockey comm.

Shocking game. The Boomers will not break their medal duck playing like this.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Can't get my VPN working to watch 7+ instead of the RTE coverage. Lucky most of it will be on when I'm working/sleeping anyway.. waiting for 2024.

Geez really struggling to hang on against Spain here.

Geez really struggling to hang on against Spain here.

I think we did really well. That's a ridiculous Spain team, to hold out for 80 minutes is pretty impressive.

I was expecting a 4 or 5-0 going in.

What a swim by Titmus.

What a swim by Titmus.

The last lap and a half was fantastic. Brilliant stuff, very special for her family watching too.

Thats awesome.

Thats awesome.

My favourite part is the poor Japanese attendant. She has absolutely no idea what to do.

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

Titmus, that was brilliant!!

Same, poor thing haha. She was a bit like “no one trained me for this s**t”

Ash is having a shocker. Making so many unforced errors. Can't put Sorribes Tormo away at all. She's losing it rather than SST winning it.

That’s harsh. Reason for the unforced errors was partly because SST was making her hit many extra shots. She played unbelievably well and took advantage of the court speed which also contributed to Barty’s problems.

SST did play well, but it's still true that Barty wasn't putting her away. 55 UEs is very high. Even early in rallies she was missing simple groundstrokes.

Diving is so s**t at times. Chinese guys clearly not synched, get 9s for synch. Canadians were nearly completely synched and got 8s. Sometimes you feel it's a reputation contest

 

[jd2010]

What's the pick of the viewing tonight?

Lol. Rightio. Someone who watches the sport every four years has a better understanding than judges who live the sport. Thank goodness we have the diving aficionado here to point out that the judges who live and breathe the sports are in fact frauds..

Titmus in the 200m

Doesn't seem to be much tonight

 

[Bradesmaen]

Doesn't seem to be much tonight

Of all the days to be off sick from work..

Yeah I was flicking through before and really couldn't pick anything. Admittedly that is with Kiwi focused coverage. But with 12 channels on Sky Sports they cover pretty much everything that is for a medal

You'd think after all these years you'd learn to grow up, but no, you haven't. You're still throwing out insults as your only posts.

Titmus time again. And it's a semi, oops...

 

[Loonerty]

Kookaburras crushing it. Switched to the Gladys presser at 11, score was 1-1.
10 minutes later they're up 4-1.
